CollectA Andalusian Stallion Palomino #88984 Review:
I was taken aback by the stallion's glowing blonde coat. The color is so rich and vibrant, resembling the sun's gentle touch on a warm summer morning. The blending of shades is incredibly realistic, and it's as if the horse's coat is radiating light. The sculpting of the face and ears is nothing short of exceptional. The stallion's expression is full of life and spirit, with eyes that seem to gaze into the distance, exuding a sense of determination and grace. The ears are finely detailed, capturing every curve and fold with remarkable precision. It's evident that the artists at CollectA poured their heart and soul into recreating every nuance of the Andalusian breed. The dynamic pose of the stallion is another aspect that sets this piece apart. With its mane whipping in the wind as it dashes forward, the figurine conveys a sense of movement and energy frozen in time. The attention to detail in the mane and tail is exquisite, with each strand seemingly caught mid-flurry.Pairs well with the CollectA Andalusian Stallion - Grey (#88464) which is the exact same model in different colors.
